general strike and associated pro-democracy protests on Ludmilla have
apparently led to a collapse of the local ManFirst government. Several
Cabinet officials belonging to the ManFirst Party have resigned, and
President Valleterre has gone into seclusion. This leaves the planetary
government in the hands of the moderate Vice President Iole Shirika. She has
announced the formation of a provisional government to hold power until open
elections can be held. The Interstellar Brotherhood of Labor and the Ewm Shao
Gwi tuhuir have both been called on to provide representatives for the
provisional Cabinet.Ω
